Errors are endemic in quantum computing. If error rates can be kept sufficiently low, quantum computers can offer transformational capabilities to tackle the world’s most challenging computational problems. Quantum Benchmark’s True-Q™ is a new suite of software products, built for makers and users of quantum computers, providing error characterization, error suppression, error correction and performance validation.

“True-Q™ increases the size and scope of problems that quantum computers can solve by successfully diagnosing and suppressing errors. For example, diagnosing errors helps hardware makers improve the design and control of their quantum computers, and suppressing errors during run-time helps users tackle bigger problems with the available hardware,” says Joseph Emerson, CEO of Quantum Benchmark. “There are high expectations for quantum computing. Helping end-users verify the validity of their quantum computations is crucial because very soon quantum computers will be able to solve complex problems whose solutions can no longer be checked with classical computers. Having this kind of validation will accelerate the adoption of true quantum computing solutions.”

The launch of True-Q™ includes several founding customers who have signed licence agreements, along with a strong pipeline of near-term opportunities.
